Couples Counseling Therapists in New Vernon, NJ

I am a clinical psychologist providing therapy and assessment services in Scarsdale and Greenwich. I treat various conditions, such as depression, anxiety, behavioral problems, social anxiety, and school/work issues. I also focus on life transitions, whether that be a recent move, transition from college, changes in family dynamics, or changes in significant relationships. Furthermore, I have extensive experience in conducting psychological assessments. Therapeutically, I focus on developing teens and adults, where as I provide assessments for all ages.

If you are struggling with issues related to feeling overwhelmed and stressed with life, work, family and/or your relationships, you need to talk with a professional. Working with an objective and professionally trained psychologist will empower you to move forward and be more productive, less stressed and happier. Sometimes, people feel alone and think that others will not understand their struggles. People often show improvements by having someone they can trust and who will be able to see their perspective without judgement. I understand the human experience and help people make changes to improve their quality of life. Call now.

At times we find ourselves at a difficult crossroad, uncertain how to grow and change in the face of our distress. With 35 years in private practice, my goal is to help individuals and couples find a path to unknot conflicts and develop more resilient and expansive modes of living. Many of the people I work with are embroiled in addictive behaviors such as alcohol and substance misuse, gambling, sex addiction and pornography. Others struggle with painful traumatic personal histories, chronic and acute illnesses, grief and loss. And still others are mired in destructive relationship patterns that undermine the quality of their lives.

I thrive when working with young women. Whether they’re struggling with school-related stress or struggling to process a breakup, I can quickly build rapport with folks in this demographic. My treatment plans include goals dedicated to helping people identify their triggers for emotional dysregulation. I believe in the importance of somatic and cognitive level wellness strategies and work to have my clients learn and implement both sets of skills. I have enjoyed working with a variety of diagnoses, including adjustment disorder, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and PTSD.

My job as a therapist is to empower my clients to be the best versions of themselves. I accomplish this by embracing each of my clients with kindness and lack of judgement. I have over 30 years of experience working in both inpatient and outpatient settings treating clients with a variety of mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, couples and marriage counseling, substance use disorders, and trauma to name a few. Please see below regarding a comprehensive list of specialties that I specialize in. I am experienced in utilizing CBT, Inner Child, Mindfulness, along with other approaches.

Reimagined Mind is a mindfully crafted teletherapy and wellness consulting practice with a mission to inspire lifestyles of wellness. We are a trauma-informed and mindfulness-based team of dynamic professionals who each have unique specialization areas. Our services include working with individuals, families, and couples seeking outpatient mental health care through traditional talk therapy and alternative therapies such as yoga, meditation, nutrition, life coaching and ecotherapy. In addition to our clinical practice, we consult with schools and companies looking to enhance their overall organizational health.

I enjoy working with relationship issues, self-esteem, anxiety and trauma. I specialize in working with adult survivors of childhood trauma, PTSD, and complex trauma. My ideal client is someone who is ready to gain insight into their experiences, and to work towards personal growth. I will help you feel empowered, and more fulfilled.

I view each client as unique. What works for one will not work for everyone and therefore I utilize several therapeutic approaches in order to best suit my patient's needs. I am energetic, warm and empathic and push people in a supportive way to make the necessary changes in their life. I use humor and provide a relaxing environment for people to feel safe and to grow in. I have a doctorate in Clinical Psychology and a pre-doctoral degree in Marriage and Family therapy and I am licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist.

I have a holistic approach to therapy knowing our mind, body and soul are all created to work and function in harmony. If something happens to impede that harmony, I help join with people in the process of discovery, grieving, healing and hope. We are uniquely made with our personalities, world views and paradigms. Wherever life has led you and to whatever point of pain, I am privileged to walk alongside you to provide insight, growth, healing and hope. I provide an empathic environment to embark on the process needed and can delicately challenge with objective feedback to help continue the healing journey.

I take an individual approach to each client, tailoring my methods to a persons needs and issues. I use cognitive behavioral techniques to help my clients manage their issues (i.e. anxieties, relationships etc.) by changing counterproductive thought patterns. There are times in all of our lives when we could use some extra support. Feeling hurt, misunderstood, angry, and confused are things each of us may feel.I am available to meet with children, adolescents, and adults on an individual basis as well as family/couples counseling.
